Modern priest wear anything they want today. Sport shirts, tanks, jeans, cut-offs, and dress slacks can all be part of a priest's wardrobe. He has no clothing restrictions, at least off the job. If he is saying Mass, of course, there are the ritual "priest's robes" and if he is serving in some religious capacity, such as a wake, he would wear a black suit and his "dog collar". The same holds true if he is attending a religious function/meeting. However, this is for American priests, the European priests may have tighter restrictions on their clothing, especially in Rome and in the Vatican.

I have never heard of that before. Franciscans wear brown or grey. Benedictines wear black as do most Christian monastic orders. Roman Catholic and some Anglican Priests wear for daily use, cassocks buttoned down the front. Other Anglican Priests wear doublebreasted cassocks with belts, ropes or cinctures about their waists. Most Non-Conformist Ministers do not wear cassocks or any other vestments apart from a clerical collar. Some like Anglican and Roman Catholic Priests wear special vestments for Baptisms, Weddings, Funerals, and the Eucharistic Services, the colours for which change according to the season or Saint's Day.
